The scope is wider than Sanders supporters, but it's mostly prevalent in his target audience.

And the scope is wider than just Sanders supporters, though his target audience is prevalent among those who seem to think it's funny.

I’m a boomer and I’ve never experienced anything but respect from younger people, especially this current generation. For real. This must be some kind of shit cooked up on social media.

Just because we're going through a bad time, that's no reason to wish harm on people, or to hurt them, either.
